My 1971 Datsun 510 at Cadwell Park

Shot during a trackday at Cadwell Park circuit in 2004. My 510 was fairly well sorted by now and with KA24DE power was faster than the Lotus Elises on the track and could easily keep up with Caterhams. Cadwell Park is generally quite narrow and twisty so handling and grip is more important that top speed. I wouldn't have been able to keep up with those cars at a fast track like Thruxton as the KA lacked power and RPM up the top end but lots of torque made it fast out of corners and the handling was superb.
